It’s 1961 and the white heat of the Space Race is making the Cold War even colder. The age of global surveillance dawns.
Secret agent Richard Knox has been hung out to dry by someone in MI5 and he needs to find the traitor in their midst.

But an accident forces her to flee.
Desperate for a way back into MI5, Knox makes an unlikely ally in Abey Bennett, one of the CIA's only female recruits, while Valera’s technology in the hands of the KGB could be catastrophic As three powers battle for dominance, three people will fight to survive...

I wasn’t totally engrossed throughout but the book is good enough. Fairly standard but enjoyable thriller.

Pretty good

Ive read all the famous obvious stuff and this was really very good. Definitely will be reading more from this author.

Really excellent spy thriller

I wasn't sure if I would stick with this audiobook, but it just did enough to keep me listening. I found the narration a bit uninspiring and flat which didn't help and the storyline lacked credibility, especially towards the end. All that said, I did want to find out how it ended so there was something about it that made it worthwhile.

A decent story

I liked all the characters and gave an insight into spy world. The narrator was very easy to listen to. Certainly would read more by this author

Great lead character

Very disappointing and uninspired. Thin plot, thin characters and even thinner dialogue...Waste of a token, couldn't finish it.

Poor Story and Poor Narration
